My bike will just not start?!

Hi all,

I just bought a Dirt Bike of eBay, Brand new, unwrapped it all. So I got a mix between oil and fuel (as you do) and got it right, tried to start the bike, and it won't start. I've opened up the fuel tap, and the choke I have tried open and closed, I tried the fuel tap open and closed aswell.

So I checked if there was a spark, there is a spark, I also put a little drop of fuel in the cylinder, and it still wont start, the key is in, and on the 'on' position.

The pull start is a lil' hard aswell, my hands are dead with how hard it is.

Please could anyone advise me further, I'm honestly lost and confused, I'm not silly with bikes either, had many normal bikes previously?!

Thank you very much,
Sam.

Awesome!! Apparently pouring 4 litres of fuel over your bike and lighting it will help cure the problem. Don't tell anyone i said this, they might get jealous!

Yeah, i know. Sorry about that but i couldn't help myself. Really, i hope you find a cure for your *ahem* problem but if all else fails, 4 litres of fuel will save you thousands in the long run

I find it so amusing how you use the term "ebay crap" - you can just about get breaks for a normal motor bike, for what you pay for a Mini Moto - there made in china cheap as chips and not even tested, and I'm pretty much sure, everyone's got one built the same, unless your a high racer who decides to go for a big brand like blata or whatever...

So instead of tryin' to act like a joker, think about it? - jeez..

Anyway, I got the mini motor checked over by one of my dad's mates, he deals with 2 stroke stuff, and got it to work luckly, it's a quick little thing loool.

Has anyone got any advice on the pull start? I find it quite hard to get it going myself.. :/ - thinking about a kick start one or whatever.

Cheers.
Sam.
